House prices up 23% in Meath & 15% in Louth

07 July 2015

A new property report shows that house prices are growing significantly outside of Dublin.
The Daft.ie report for the second quarter says the commuter counties around the capital are seeing some of the strongest growth.
Prices are up 23 per cent in Meath, 18 per cent in Kildare and 15 per cent in Louth compared to one year ago.
In Dublin, the figures show prices rose by less than one per cent between March and June.
Economist Ronan Lyons, who wrote the report, says Central Bank restrictions on mortgage lending are having an impact.
